I have this weird habit. It all started when I was a little girl playing with my favorite toy, Legos. I would build these elaborate houses, with interesting window configurations, pitch roofs and unusual designs. I would then sit down to draw elaborate floor plans, which would include bird eye views of furniture, to scale of course. To say I was obsessed with houses and buildings was an understatement. For a while I even thought about becoming an architect.
Now, instead of building with legos, I change and rearrange houses in my head. I can’t help it - along with counting out change before a cashier hands it to me, once I enter a person’s home and the conversation starts to wane I immediately mentally rearrange their home. It could be as simple as thinking about the placement of the couch or as elaborate as the addition of an interior wall, adding a different window or even an entire level. I watch House Hunters on HGTV and am one of those people you see on the commercial who yell at the TV “pick number 1, number 1!”
This is why I’m totally hooked on this blog, which showcases some incredible homes. My most recent favorite post is this one which is all about unusual bookshelves. Hmmm, I wonder if that will fit anywhere in my house?
So fess up, do you have any strange habits?
